Im having a tifft of a time manipulating XML in my bpel.
I am using Netbeans 5.5 to create BPEL and it seems to
work OK. I have written a few XSL transformations to manipulate
my XML that work well. HOWEVER, my problem is that I have
to deal with legacy XML format that isnt friendly to XPath or XSL, I think.
The schema is legacy and Im not allowed to change it.
I have to parse througfh the XML by the FIRST string element in
the item list and then alter the value of the next string. For example;
I search for cups and then get the string following it, which is coffee
and make it tea instead. From inside of netbeans all I see are the
schema tags, i.e.
local-name()=items/*local-name()=string/*local-name()=string.
I feel like Im trying to hack out XSL or XPath to solve this. Is there an
easier or recommended way? Its very hard to debug too, even though
I have the DEBUG turned on for ODE. ANY HELP GREATLY appreaciated.
Here is a little snippet of what my XML appears as;
<message>
<Level1> Title for level one </Level1>
<Level2> Title for level two </Level2>
<Level3 msg=Here is a big data blob>
<list>
<item>
<string> cups </string>
<string> coffee </string>
</item>
<item>
<string> plates </string>
<string> saucer</string>
</item>
.

</Level3>
